Student feedback“Making a visual essay forced us to not only learn about the material, but to put it together in a logical, coherent manner using not only words but images.”
“I had hinted toward this argument in my writing but I never fully said it. In this project I did.”
“Working in a group with a challenging assignment is amazing. I learned so much about myself, my group-mates and iMovie. I am totally satisfied by the project!”

Student feedback“Doing the voiceover for this project helped me with my
German pronunciation.”
“The interviews were the most interesting part to me. This was the portion of the project where the thesis actually took shape and that was exciting.”
“The sense of satisfaction afterwards, having completed our OWN videos. The result is much more visible than other assignments and we were very proud of it.”
